I'm pretty sure you've seen Jacqueline's designs everywhere if you browse Etsy. I absolutely love her shop and can attest to the quality of her clothing line - I own four pieces (boyfriend button down, ruched leggings, Creme de la Creme black dress, and pullover dolman sweater).  I had to stop wearing the sweater recently because The Boy said to me one day during lunch,

"Do you own any other sweaters besides this one? I mean, it looks good, but you've worn it everyday since you got it." 

In my defense, working from home makes me want to dress really comfy but still cute, so I end up wearing the sweater, leggings, and leopard print super-over-sized slippers around the house.

I'm constantly checking her shop for updates and was pleasantly surprised when she updated her shop with some new spring-y photos!

I needed a break today.

I've been sewing non-stop for the past few weeks. I really needed a break from sewing (bags).  I keep a pile of thrift store finds nearby for instances like this.  I found an over sized, unflattering ruffle shirt and thought I would transform it into a simple tank to wear this weekend. 

What do you think?

Head to Toe: Dress, Boots & Bag

I must say, I'm a boots girl.  Flats are OK. Heels are nice. But boots! I just love boots. It may be the Texan in me, because I have many (many many many) pairs of boots (mainly the cowboy kind). I try to match my clothing around my boots so I can wear them at every opportunity --summer, spring, and fall (we don't have much of a winter here in Austin). :)

Spring is coming, and I can't help but browse Etsy for some pretty little dresses and boots.  As I was window shopping, I thought of an idea; how about I share my shopping experience with you?

Introducing the new series, "Head to Toe" featuring some of my favorite fashion finds paired with a bag from the shop. :)
